Courageous Joy

FRIDAY ~ Yippee ~ It's REALLY FRIDAY!

This has been a hard week around here. I've had appointments that I had to be at most days. That always disrupts the sweet tenor of our home. Mostly because I am one of those folks who likes to be ON TIME and so I run around like a mad woman trying to do everything we would normally do without an appointment and still make it on time or early to the appointment. LOL

I'm amazed at all we've accomplished given the outside engagements. I think we got everything done.

Jamin finished school by lunch time today. WOW! It was a treat to have him available to play. Josiah had been trying to find a time for two weeks that we could all go see *Open Season*. Juggling the school schedule, work schedules and has such has been impossible. Today he was off at 2 and had to be back at 5 p.m. We all loaded into the van and met him at the mall. We whisked him away with us to see the movie. There were only 2 other people in the theater...that's the RIGHT time for us to go to the movies. I think it was a good break for Josiah between two shifts.

We headed home and pulled the pan pizza dough out of the fridge so it could rise. Then, we headed for the park. The little boys were awed with some new "double" light sabers that two boys at the park had. I wonder if this light saber fighting thing is universal or a TX thing. Jamin, Arielle and Jared played baseball. I pushed Stacia and dinked around with her for 30 minutes and then put her in the stroller and got my 30 minutes of walking in. Turned out great.

At home we made pizza and now the younger ones are cleaning up. I've been fielding phone calls for co-op. Orders were due today. I can't delay any longer. I'm going to have to try to install the software. LOL Unfortunately, I think I will have to input ALL the new members to make it work....sigh...but I guess there may be a reason I would want that info on two computers????
